Process
First, there was a two-hour coding challenge on password validation. It was pretty straightforward.
It was followed by a phone screen with an Okta software engineer. The coding problem was moderate to difficult.
The recruiter was very prompt and communicative throughout the process. I am currently hopeful and waiting for a callback.

Pros: Colleagues are generally very open, collaborative, and knowledgeable.
There are plenty of opportunities to grow, especially given the Bangalore office is relatively new (in 2024), and even senior folks are ready to spend time to help you out.
Cons: There are still growing pains in the India office, though perks such as health insurance and EPF have been sorted out. There are the universal issues of a few bad apples here and there, but they are very much the exception.
